title: Sex pheromone cAD1 in Streptococcus faecalis: induction of a function related to plasmid transfer.
abstract: In short matings between two donor strains with distinguishable isogenic conjugative plasmids (derivatives of pAD1), only the strain preexposed to the sex pheromone cAD1 behaved as a donor.
